5. Biggest Faux Pas – Bitching about Panelist in Their Panels
Insulting the guests who’re speaking while you’re sitting in their panel is just silly. It might not seem obvious to everyone, but if you choose to attend a panel featuring a guest you don’t like, you might want to keep it to yourself. Sitting in panels I’ve often overheard people making disparaging remarks about the people on stage, (often people who I have made a special effort to hear talk). Sitting in close-quarters with a lot of people who have made a special effort to go see those specific creators talk, you’re definitely going to offend someone, a bit like being a fan of the away team at a home team game.

Surprised that Neil Gibson’s Twisted Dark booth poster isn’t mentioned. It was particularly impressive!
As I rounded one corner, the haunting smiling face hit me like a ton of bricks. I simply couldn’t stay away. The books are mightily good value – $5 for a whole graphic novel! Insanely good!
